Transparent proxy
Hi, On my NAT-box, I'm trying to redirect all http traffic from the desktops behind to the squid cache, which is on the same machine. The ipfw rule I use that should accomplish this is: $ ipfw add 2350 fwd 192.168.1.1 3128 from any to any 80 And in squid.conf I have: http_port 192.168.1.1:3128 httpd_accel_host virtual httpd_accel_port 80 httpd_accel_with_proxy on httpd_accel_uses_host_header on Somehow I must be overlooking something, because although http traffic works well on the clients, it isn't being picked up.

I've read the man pages but see no option for configuring tin to auto magically enter a user name/password when it connect to the nntpserver. Is there anyway to do this (my new provider require some random set of symbols for username and password which make it hard to enter manually all the time).

Ah, sorry about that. In my cvsup file I said: src-all release=cvs for the sources, because it wouldn't take anything else. I tried saying current and release, but to no avail. Maybe I should be trying release, but I can't seeme to get the release src..

Re: supported USB ADSL modems
Hi there, The speed touch modem is supported and last time I used it the pppoA port was good for the job. I seem to remember having some useful stuff kicking around, how to's etc. I'll have a look when I get home later. The Modem it's self however is petty unreliable over time and I found that I needed a cron job to disconnect and reconnect every night. Although Kernel PPP (user PPP does not do pppoA to my knowledge) does allow for a persistant connection, it seems that the modem just crashes sometimes and the only solution is to power down the USB port or restart the host machine. Hope this helps.

Well if they were supported, they would most likely be listed in the hardware page for your release listed on the FreeBSD homepage. I don't think any USB ADSL modems are supported but I could be wrong. Try to get them to give you an ethernet version. Most anything that connects by ethernet would be supported. They may tell you they can't, but if you press them, they almost always have some ethernet hardware available. I believe there is support for Alcatel SpeedTouch modems using net/pppoa from ports. I've no experience with it however. If you ask me an ethernet interface is always better for networking tasks.

AirportExtreme with FreeBSD HostAP
Hi, I have done a bit of research on the topic, and I've only been able to find sporadic postings to several newsgroups (mostly Open/Net BSD related) hinting at the fact that Apple's AirportExtreme (talking 802.11b, not g here) drivers are incompatible with Free/Net/Open BSD HostAP mode APs with WEP enabled... From my experiences, I cannot get my PowerBook to connect to my FreeBSD 4-Stable (built 2 nights ago) HostAP, WinXP clients work fine. The PowerBook returns invalid password (128bit wep Key entered in Hex) supplied. Has anybody had experience getting an AirportExtreme client to work with a FreeBSD HostAP? Any Pointers? (Must I disable WEP (as useless as it may be...)?) Thank you, ~Aaron -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of John Fitzgibbon Sent: Sunday, March 23, 2003 4:33 PM To: Giorgos Keramidas Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Repeated ACKs - possible DoS? Note to freebsd-net readers: I'm cc'ing this email because this seems like a net issue - full thread is in freebsd-questions. I've been looking at the code in sys/netinet/tcp_input.c. The behavior seems consistent with inducing tcp_input() to jump to the dropafterack label for every incoming ACK. The most promising way to do this seems to be to set the T/TCP options when initializing the connection, then just stop using them on some subsequent ACK, (or give the wrong CC value). The code is around line 1420: /* * T/TCP mechanism * If T/TCP was negotiated and the segment doesn't have CC, * or if its CC is wrong then drop the segment. * RST segments do not have to comply with this. */ if ((tp-t_flags (TF_REQ_CC|TF_RCVD_CC)) == (TF_REQ_CC|TF_RCVD_CC) ((to.to_flags TOF_CC) == 0 || tp-cc_recv != to.to_cc)) goto dropafterack; It may also be possible to cause the jump to dropafterack with the timestamp option, (RFC 1323 - the code is just above the previous T/TCP code). This would jive with the fact that the client connection seemed to be a Windows 98 machine, (from the Apache logs), and apparently the Windows 98 implementation of RFC 1323 is flawed. However, I'm less sure what kind of invalid options scenario would be required. In any case, I haven't done enough research to be 100% sure that either of these approaches can cause the behavior I observed. All I AM sure of is that I observed the repeated ACK situation, and it was a pretty darn effective DoS.

Re: Repeated ACKs - possible DoS?
Note to freebsd-net readers: I'm cc'ing this email because this seems like a net issue - full thread is in freebsd-questions. I've been looking at the code in sys/netinet/tcp_input.c. The behavior seems consistent with inducing tcp_input() to jump to the dropafterack label for every incoming ACK. The most promising way to do this seems to be to set the T/TCP options when initializing the connection, then just stop using them on some subsequent ACK, (or give the wrong CC value). The code is around line 1420: /* * T/TCP mechanism * If T/TCP was negotiated and the segment doesn't have CC, * or if its CC is wrong then drop the segment. * RST segments do not have to comply with this. */ if ((tp-t_flags (TF_REQ_CC|TF_RCVD_CC)) == (TF_REQ_CC|TF_RCVD_CC) ((to.to_flags TOF_CC) == 0 || tp-cc_recv != to.to_cc)) goto dropafterack; It may also be possible to cause the jump to dropafterack with the timestamp option, (RFC 1323 - the code is just above the previous T/TCP code). This would jive with the fact that the client connection seemed to be a Windows 98 machine, (from the Apache logs), and apparently the Windows 98 implementation of RFC 1323 is flawed. However, I'm less sure what kind of invalid options scenario would be required. In any case, I haven't done enough research to be 100% sure that either of these approaches can cause the behavior I observed. All I AM sure of is that I observed the repeated ACK situation, and it was a pretty darn effective DoS. I'm also sure that banging ACKs back and forth at full speed is NOT how TCP/IP is supposed to work. Hopefully this might be enough of a lead to get someone's thought processes going. Fitz.

If there is no way can you suggest an alternative news reader that might provide this option but is non-graphical and similar to tin ? To manually authenticate when connecting with tin use the -A flag when invoking it from the command line, which causes tin to prompt you on connection for the username and password. To automate this, create a .newsauth file containing the nntp server name and username and password in the format (described in man 5 tin): nntpserver.myisp.com mypassword myusername or nntpserver.myisp.com mypassword [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cheers, Viktor To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message

Question regarding multiport serial cards
I am after a multiport serial card supported under FreeBSD. Currently we have a Stallion 4port serial card (PCI) in an old server however the new server has PCI-X 64bit slots. After speaking to Stallion it seems they do not make a PCI 3.3V (PCI-X) version of the same card. Digi do one though (Acceleport XP) but it seems Freebsd only supports the ISA version - not the PCI version. Does anyone know if the Digi is supported and/or have any other recommendations for cards of choice? thanks!

I have a few issues with this code ..
a) You never free() your malloc'ed memory
b) You shouldn't call strlen(c) every time you iterate through the
while() loop (since 'c' isn't changing). Set this length in a variable
before the while loop, then make use of that variable. This could even
be a #define, since the string is hard-coded.
c) I'm not sure this is completely portable: d[e] = 0;
Just in case, I'd suggest: d[e] = '\0';
d) Combine these two lines:
b = random();
b = b % strlen(c);
-- b = random() % len; // using 'len' variable as I mentioned before.
e) You never return from main(). Some compilers will be very unhappy
about this. Better to be explicit.
f) You don't check the return value of malloc(). This should be a
no-brainer. *Always* check the return value of malloc/calloc, no matter
how little memory you are requesting.

Hope this helps. to finish the thread nicely, this is the result of nmap (-P0 required): $ nmap -p 22 -P0 -sA MY-GW-IP Starting nmap V. 3.00 ( www.insecure.org/nmap/ ) Interesting ports on (MY-GW-IP): Port State Service 22/tcp filteredssh Nmap run completed -- 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 36 seconds $ nmap -p 22 -P0 -sW MY-GW-IP Starting nmap V. 3.00 ( www.insecure.org/nmap/ ) Interesting ports on (MY-GW-IP): Port State Service 22/tcp filteredssh Nmap run completed -- 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 37 seconds --- filtered means that nmap(1) cannot determine if a port is open or closed - because it can't reach it, the traceroute(8) utility confirms (i guess): --- $ traceroute -p 22 -P tcp 12.17.140.247 1 1-118-237-24 (24.237.118.1) 150.900 ms 226.750 ms 99.080 ms 2 177-48-96-206 (206.96.48.177) 109.873 ms 118.265 ms 109.982 ms 3 81-128-165-209 (209.165.128.81) 129.754 ms 108.081 ms 129.900 ms 4 9-128-165-209 (209.165.128.9) 99.918 ms 108.252 ms * 5 202-129-165-209 (209.165.129.202) 140.307 ms 128.159 ms 129.912 ms 6 213-129-165-209 (209.165.129.213) 129.899 ms 128.249 ms 129.883 ms 7 sl-gw11-sea-0-2.sprintlink.net (144.228.93.233) 129.916 ms 247.420 ms 119.160 ms 8 sl-bb21-sea-9-3.sprintlink.net (144.232.6.117) 129.923 ms 129.112 ms 129.866 ms 9 sprint-gw.st6wa.ip.att.net (192.205.32.173) 129.941 ms 236.239 ms 129.925 ms 10 gbr4-p40.st6wa.ip.att.net (12.123.44.134) 129.878 ms 276.170 ms 129.826 ms 11 gbr1-p40.st6wa.ip.att.net (12.122.5.162) 129.890 ms 128.086 ms 129.896 ms 12 gar1-p360.st6wa.ip.att.net (12.123.44.58) 139.894 ms 128.144 ms 129.860 ms 13 12.123.203.1 (12.123.203.1) 159.911 ms 159.252 ms 159.929 ms 14 12.124.174.58 (12.124.174.58) 159.894 ms 179.251 ms 189.900 ms 15 12.17.140.1 159.916 ms 219.640 ms 169.925 ms 16 * * * ** TCP SSH port blocked by 12.17.140.1 $ traceroute -p 22 -P udp 12.17.140.247 1 1-118-237-24 (24.237.118.1) 140.974 ms 96.948 ms 109.883 ms 2 177-48-96-206 (206.96.48.177) 99.909 ms 108.272 ms 100.431 ms 3 81-128-165-209 (209.165.128.81) 109.347 ms 98.296 ms 99.874 ms 4 9-128-165-209 (209.165.128.9) 99.923 ms 98.214 ms 99.894 ms 5 202-129-165-209 (209.165.129.202) 129.904 ms 128.249 ms 130.284 ms 6 * * 213-129-165-209 (209.165.129.213) 130.333 ms 7 sl-gw11-sea-0-2.sprintlink.net (144.228.93.233) 128.730 ms 127.648 ms 129.876 ms 8 sl-bb21-sea-9-3.sprintlink.net (144.232.6.117) 129.907 ms 128.742 ms 129.378 ms 9 * sprint-gw.st6wa.ip.att.net (192.205.32.173) 180.893 ms 127.553 ms 10 gbr4-p40.st6wa.ip.att.net (12.123.44.134) 129.917 ms 127.873 ms 130.271 ms 11 gbr1-p40.st6wa.ip.att.net (12.122.5.162) 129.555 ms 128.079 ms 130.012 ms 12 gar1-p360.st6wa.ip.att.net (12.123.44.58) 130.377 ms 127.471 ms 129.905 ms 13 12.123.203.1 (12.123.203.1) 159.890 ms 158.353 ms 180.235 ms 14 12.124.174.58 (12.124.174.58) 329.566 ms 198.359 ms 219.902 ms 15 12.17.140.1 170.460 ms 169.097 ms 159.951 ms 16 MY-GW-IP 339.902 ms 329.998 ms 259.590 ms ** UDP SSH port available (but a UDP connection is useless on port 22). --- thank you all for your assistance and knowledge.

RE: FreeBSD 5.0
I think he read somewhere that 5.0 had issues with bootable CD's The initial freebsd 5.0 cd's and iso images have a flaw in them related to bootable cd's, I downloaded and built my CD's from ISO's and they boot fine. If for some reason they don't post the error and I am sure you will get a *nice* reply on how to fix it..
